šŸšœMicrosoftā€™s $80 Billion AI Infrastructure Investment

Microsoft revealed plans to invest $80 billion into building data centers that house AI Clusters to power advanced AI applications.

Key Details:
  • Over half of the $80 billion will be focused on building data centers in America to gain an edge over Chinese competitors.

  • Vice Chair and President of Microsoft Brad Smith outlined a three-part vision for Americaā€™s AI success:

    1. Investing in AI Infrastructure

    2. Exporting American AI to Allies and Friends

    3. Skilling Programs to Promote Widespread AI Adoption

  • An AI Cluster combines the power, storage, and memory of GPUs to train, develop, and deploy advanced AI applications.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • These data centers reduce compute constraints for the companyā€™s developers, allowing them to power advanced AI applications.

  • This investment enables Microsoft to build bigger, better, and faster AI models with excellent scalability, flexibility, and performance.

āš™ļøGoogle DeepMind Tackles AIā€™s ā€œPeak Dataā€ Problem

Google DeepMind has found a new approach to overcome data limitations when training AI models.

Key Details:
  • OpenAIā€™s former Chief Scientist Ilya Sutskever recently explained: ā€œWeā€™ve achieved peak data, and thereā€™ll be no more.ā€

  • AI firms have already used all the useful data available on the internet to train AI models. ā€œWeā€™ve hit a data wall,ā€ added Sutskever.

  • To solve this issue, Google DeepMind developed Test-Time Compute, which allocates more computing power during AI Inference: everything that happens after you enter your prompt.

  • This process allows AI models to ā€œthink harderā€ on complex problems by exploring multiple ways to answer your prompt. It achieves this by breaking down your prompt into smaller tasks.

  • Now, Google DeepMind is using these smaller tasks as new training data in a process known as the Iterative Self-Improvement Loop.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • All the useful data on the internet has already been used to train AI models. Also, all high-quality data could be exhausted by 2026.

  • Test-Time Compute and the Iterative Self-Improvement Loop are Google DeepMindā€™s innovative approaches to overcome data limitations when training AI models.
